BSS58 Datasheet - Pepperl+Fuchs Inc.

Description
   In modern machines and systems, binary sensors and actuators are connected together via ASInterface.
   Until now it was necessary to go back to the use of costly conventional wiring when wanting to use absolute encoders. The reason for this was that the handshake mode with the control module of the analogue profile proved to be too slow for positioning tasks.
   In order to meet the real-time demands of many applications, a multi-slave solution using the BSS58 AS-Interface rotary encoders was created. The position value of 13 Bits in length is transferred within a single cycle via the 4 integrated ASInterface chips to the master and made available to the PLC.
